Chicago to Falling Leaf

Several members of BMW Motorrad Club Northern Illinois will be going! Here is the info from our eblast we sent out. (If you want to get on our ride notification list just sign up on our website HERE) If you go to the link for routes (downloadable Garmin routes), we also have some routes that will provide some great riding once there.

Weather Outlook: Highs in the upper 70's, lows in the mid 50's; slight chance of drizzles... nothing we can't handle
Route Downloads: HereDescription and travel notes: Please take note of the departure time and location! This is our last rally trip of the year! There are some awesome roads down there and I plan to ride them fast and furious! For the most part, it is a straight shot down there and back. Saturday I will lead a ride over the valley and a through the woods for about 150 miles and be back in time for a gin and tonic! If you are up for some fast curves be sure to join us!

Several of us from Bloomington, IL will be there. I am headed that way today to explore areas of Mo. especially the old route 66. There are old mom and pop motels, restaurants and great roads along the route. "Get your kicks on route 66............."

Falliing Leaf

I will pop in for lunch tomorrow - weather permitting. However once you have been a few times it really lacks much of a draw. I guess the roads in the area are a draw, but I live near Potosi and ride the curvy blacktop most nice days. Look for a Vermillion red K1600GT - that's me.

Great Rally.. my first time there (also my first ferry crossing with my bike on the way there and back).. will be back for sure next year. Really nice riding. Besides some rain in the morning on Saturday it was great weather! Continued for another week trip afterwards ..to WV and VA ..peak fall colors and beautiful roads
